Known by few as the Base Branch, the United Nations’ Special Operations Forces provide globe defense against any who threaten the fragile balance of peace.

Travel Time

My favorite part about writing the Base Branch Series—besides getting to better know the uniquely complicated and stubbornly passionate characters—is the travel. Do I have the means to jet set from Washington D.C. to Africa, to London, and then Los Angeles to Mexico? Nope, but I can research with the best of them. I. Did. A. Ton. Of. Research. And loved every minute of it.

Did you know Sierra Leone hosts hundreds of miles of pristine beach nestled against the cobalt water of the Atlantic Ocean? How about this? Many tube stations in the London Underground were used as air-raid shelters during the Second World War.

Thanks to Google maps, I’ve roamed the streets of Hermosillo, Mexico and scoped the dusky grass of the Kruger Lowveld. You know my places to travel to list has tripled in the last year. I’ll start witting it down with a trip to Mexico in a few months. Yay!

So, what are the top destination on your travel list? Comment and let me know for a chance to win a digital copy of Enemy Mine.

It’s always satisfying reading a book that an author has invested so much time into writing. You can always tell, too. At the very top of my travel wish list is Brazil, followed closely by Switzerland. One’s fueled by Brazilian men and beach soccer, the other mainly by chocolate. 😀 Hope you have a blast in Mexico and best of luck with this series, Megan!!
